Hi, this mail is for the English-speaking Perl Monger groups. The GCI - Google Code In - has started 2 days ago. The Perl Foundation participates through the volunteer work of Florian Ragwitz (rafl) and Paul Johnson ( pjcj ). The dead-line for the first round was extended to 27 November and in these 2 days I noticed something missing. I'd like to call for your help. Some of the tasks are translation related such as translating - Mojolicious::Guides::FAQ - The Moose website - OpenWebMail - The GUI of Padre, the Perl IDE - Several screencasts I made and put on YouTube BUT In order to translate the screencasts, first we need the English transcription of the text. That's also good for people who are not comfortable with my accent. Currently there are only 3 screencasts with transcription so the translators cannot proceed. That's where we need your help. We need both students and mentors to do and check the transcriptions. I think we especially need students as nearly any one of the current mentors can check the content. If you think this is a good cause please forward this message to your Perl Monger group and ask them to sign up as mentors or as students. If they are in the right age. Mentors ========= Here is the process for mentors: 1) Sign up as a mentor at http://www.google-melange.com/gci/profile/mentor/google/gci2011 2) Join the #gci channel on irc.perl.org If you don't have an IRC client you can follow this link: http://wbe004.mibbit.com/?autoConnect=true&server=irc.perl.org&channel=%23gci&nick= 3) Talk to Paul Johnson ( pjcj ) or Florian Ragwitz ( rafl ) who can invite you to the TPF program. Let them know you are ready to mentor transcriptions. Students ========= 1) Sign up as a student: I think this is the form: http://www.google-melange.com/gci/profile/student/google/gci2011 2) Join the #gci channel on irc.perl.org If you don't have an IRC client you can follow this link: http://wbe004.mibbit.com/?autoConnect=true&server=irc.perl.org&channel=%23gci&nick= 3) Talk to Paul Johnson ( pjcj ) or Florian Ragwitz ( rafl ) who can direct you further. I think that's it. regards Gabor _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
